Envelopes and Scraps

For this card I have gone back to the standard size, but I have used a Love Notes envelope on the front of the card to create a pocket, giving you somewhere to hide an extra little message. As I started on this card I still had the scraps from the eScape cards on my table, and straight away I realised I could use them on this card. The scraps were adhered to the envelope, ribbon wrapped around and tied, and a notch cut out of the semi circle. I then layered some Whisper White onto a piece of Certainly Celery that was taller than the envelope, and slipped them inside. I stamped the Circle of Friendship image on Whisper White using Perfect Plum ink and once again punched it out with the 1" circle punch. I mounted it on a 1 1/4" circle of Pale Plum with a dimensional then positioned these so they'd line up with the half-circle Celery Prints scrap when the little card was in the envelope.
